Finishing out our stay

We moved into this property as we had to extend our stay in Jacksonville beach due to my husband’s job and our rental until this time was already booked. It’s a cute little house and really close to the beach and with in walking distance to shops and restaurants. If you fill all the beds in this rental you will be a little cramped on space when eating but it worked for my husband and me.

Great location!!

Great location! You can walk everywhere! We stayed here during house renovation and it was very comfortable! The walk in shower was great for my 84 year old mother who stayed in the bunk room a one night. Chris was so sweet to have fresh flowers, muffins and coffee for us. Highly recommend for a couple with kids !

Perfect Beach Getaway

Adorable, comfortable, and functional! Small but functional for our group of 5. Great location - literally 2 min walk to the sand. Beach goodies provided - beach chairs, umbrella, canopy, and beach wagon! Our pug loved the entirely enclosed courtyard! We sat out in the courtyard every night, enjoying the beach vibes. (Bug spray recommended - FL has mosquitoes.). Master bed and bath very comfortable. Second bedroom and bath was great for sleeping. Kitchen was adorably appointed, with everything you need to cook your own meals (except the food), which we did every night of our stay. The living room area was a bit small for our group, but only while watching TV, which we didn’t do very much. Chris was very communicative and responsive to our needs. Highly recommend! Would love to return!
